press release

i'm not going to grad school this year. the results of my applications were split into two piles, one teeming with debt-ridden financial aid packages, and one expressing sincere regret that i was not among the 2% admitted. and as an artist who doesn't expect to sell physical objects to wealthy benefactors, and who has worked way too hard to become self supporting at the age of 22 and 11 months, debt was not an option. instead i am planning to move into a larger place with room for a studio, by the ocean, and continue creating for opportunities next year, or a couple of years down the line. if my goals as an artist are to be self sufficient, continuously creative, and publicly recognized, well, i can still enable 2 out of 3 goals from where i am right now. the summer is nearing, and i am forging right ahead.

we now return to your regular scheduled channel surfing through twentysomething life.
